How to Recover Deleted Photos from Recently Deleted Folder on iPhone

Accidentally deleted a photo and realized it’s even gone from your Recently Deleted folder? Don’t give up hope just yet! Here’s how to recover those vanished images and boost your chances of getting back your precious memories.

‍

UNDERSTAND HOW RECENTLY DELETED WORKS

Your iPhone’s Recently Deleted folder only stores photos for 30 days: • After 30 days, photos are automatically and permanently removed 🗑️ • Manually emptying the folder deletes all selected images right away

‍

CHECK ICLOUD BACKUPS

If you have iCloud Photos or iCloud Backup enabled, you might be able to restore: • Go to Settings → [Your Name] → iCloud → Photos; make sure “iCloud Photos” is on ☁️ • Log in to iCloud.com, click “Photos,” and look in the “Recently Deleted” album • If you have an iCloud backup from before deletion, you can restore your entire device from that backup (note: this replaces current data)

‍

CONNECT TO ITUNES OR FINDER BACKUPS

Have you ever backed up your iPhone to your computer? • Connect your iPhone to your Mac/PC • Use Finder (macOS Catalina and newer) or iTunes to restore from a date before deletion • This will revert all data to that date, so use with caution ⏳

‍

TRY THE PHOTO RECOVERY APP

Deleted photos don’t always get overwritten right away. A recovery tool can help: • Download the Photo Recovery app from the App Store • Let the app scan your device for residual traces of deleted photos • Preview and recover any images found — act quickly for the best chance! 🪄
